The Fame Game Trailer Release

What is The Fame Game? According to Karan Johar, it is much more than what it is expected to be. The show has an emotional graph and is about a movie star's life. The face that they do not show to the world and the secrets that they keep. "There is a lot of glamour, glitter and grandeur attached to the lives of a movie star. But what is behind the curtain? What happens? Behind every movie star there lies a story that you do not know," Johar said during the trailer launch.

The Fame Game is scheduled to release on February 25 this year on Netflix.

It revolves around the life of Anamika played by Dixit who is a superstar, a mother, a wife and a daughter. All is going well when suddenly she disappears. The police, after she has disappeared for 48 hours tried to find her whereabouts. She is married to Kapoor's character. The trailer shows conflict on that part as Kapoor tells his life and relation with Anamika to the police investigating the case. While she also has a romantic relationship with another person, who is played by Kaul. There is a lot going on with her family also involved and trying to decimate whether to reveal about that "one night." It ends with the line that "sometimes your own family are the ones that cannot be trusted."

Dixit said that her life has been very different than that of Anamika's luckily. "I loved the script. It is about fame and what follies and what can happen when there is fame in your life. It is a story about a woman whose life is seemingly very perfect till she disappears one day. Then where is she changed to who is she? Do people know who she is because they have all seen her on the screen where her life is perfect. There is mystery and family drama. Everything just unravels. This really fascinated me," said Dixit to one of the questions during the launch.
